With all the crazy media frenetic energy surrounding the Swine Flu, I've been getting lotsa calls and emails. I invite you to read Dr Mercola's article on this. you can click on the link below and here are some things you can do to prevent viruses and bacteria in general:
How to Protect Yourself Without Dangerous Drugs and Vaccinations by Dr. Mercola
For now, my point is that there are always going to be threats of flu pandemics, real or created, and there will always be potentially toxic vaccines that are peddled as the solution. But you can break free of that whole drug-solution trap by following some natural health principles.
I have not caught a flu in over two decades, and you can avoid it too, without getting vaccinated, by following these simple guidelines, which will keep your immune system in optimal working order so that you're far less likely to acquire the infection to begin with.
* Optimize your vitamin D levels. As I've previously reported, optimizing your vitamin D levels is one of the absolute best strategies for avoiding infections of ALL kinds, and vitamin D deficiency is likely the TRUE culprit behind the seasonality of the flu -- not the flu virus itself.
This is probably the single most important and least expensive action you can take. I would STRONGLY urge you to have your vitamin D level monitored to confirm your levels are therapeutic at 50-70 ng.ml and done by a reliable vitamin D lab like Lab Corp.
For those of you in the US we hope to launch a vitamin D testing service through Lab Corp that allows you to have your vitamin D levels checked at your local blood drawing facility, and relatively inexpensively. We hope to offer this service by June 2009.
If you are coming down with flu like symptoms and have not been on vitamin D you can take doses of 50,000 units a day for three days to treat the acute infection. Some researchers like Dr. Cannell, believe the dose could even be as high as 1000 units per pound of body weight for three days.
*
Avoid Sugar and Processed Foods. Sugar decreases the function of your immune system almost immediately, and as you likely know, a strong immune system is key to fighting off viruses and other illness. Be aware that sugar is present in foods you may not suspect, like ketchup and fruit juice.
*
Get Enough Rest. Just like it becomes harder for you to get your daily tasks done if you're tired, if your body is overly fatigued it will be harder for it to fight the flu. Be sure to check out my article Guide to a Good Night's Sleep for some great tips to help you get quality rest.
*
Have Effective Tools to Address Stress . We all face some stress every day, but if stress becomes overwhelming then your body will be less able to fight off the flu and other illness.
If you feel that stress is taking a toll on your health, consider using an energy psychology tool such as the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), which is remarkably effective in relieving stress associated with all kinds of events, from work to family to trauma. You can check out my free, 25-page EFT manual for some guidelines on how to perform EFT.
*
Exercise. When you exercise, you increase your circulation and your blood flow throughout your body. The components of your immune system are also better circulated, which means your immune system has a better chance of finding an illness before it spreads. You can review my exercise guidelines for some great tips on how to get started.
*
Take a good source of animal based omega-3 fats like Krill Oil. Increase your intake of healthy and essential fats like the omega-3 found in krill oil, which is crucial for maintaining health. It is also vitally important to avoid damaged omega-6 oils that are trans fats and in processed foods as it will seriously damage your immune response.
*
Wash Your Hands. Washing your hands will decrease your likelihood of spreading a virus to your nose, mouth or other people. Be sure you don't use antibacterial soap for this -- antibacterial soaps are completely unnecessary, and they cause far more harm than good. Instead, identify a simple chemical-free soap that you can switch your family to.
*
Eat Garlic Regularly. Garlic works like a broad-spectrum antibiotic against bacteria, virus, and protozoa in the body. And unlike with antibiotics, no resistance can be built up so it is an absolutely safe product to use. However, if you are allergic or don't enjoy garlic it would be best to avoid as it will likely cause more harm than good.
* Avoid Hospitals and Vaccines In this particular case, I'd also recommend you stay away from hospitals unless you're having an emergency, as hospitals are prime breeding grounds for infections of all kinds, and could be one of the likeliest places you could be exposed to this new bug. Vaccines will not be available for six months at the minimum but when available they will be ineffective and can lead to crippling paralysis like Guillain-Barré Syndrome just as it did in the 70s.
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/04/29/Swine-Flu.aspx
The above was written by Dr. Mercola. You need to determine if it resonates with you and consult with your medical and holistic professionals.
Here's to your health, awareness and insight.
Namaste,
Tina

I want to share with you that I was invited to participate in a healing ceremony the other night with medicine men from Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta from Colombia, South America. We did a beautiful ceremony healing the Earth and ourselves. See photos in my group page.
Here is a website with their info: www.corazondelmundo.org You can read it in English or in Spanish. Take a look at the gallery and the photos. Most of them don’t even speak Spanish. They have their native lingo. They are simple people. They asked us for something to cut some thread and we gave them scissors. They looked puzzled and asked us how to use the scissors.
They are wonderful people spending lots of time in meditation and in ceremony to heal the Earth with the hope that everyone will gravitate to peace. So humble they are. Being in their energy was beyond words.
They are holding a space of peace for all of us. They live simple lives and they don't have to be distracted like the rest of us with all the noise, technology and "stuff". Their meditations and intentions are magnificent, powerful and compelling.
These people ask for your help in recovering their ancestral lands and protecting their sacred sites. So check out their website and see if you can donate money and/or send out healing loving energy prayers to them. Also energetically we can thank them for helping us heal the earth and promoting peace.
Namaste

It's Renewal and Rebirth time whether you celebrate Easter or not.
It's that time of year again when little children start painting boiled eggs and gluing cotton balls on little bunny rabbits all in celebration of Easter. I have many fond memories of Easter. I remember baking Italian Easter cookies with the colorful eggs embedded in them. I remember eating boiled eggs of many different colors and varieties. And cooking the variety of Easter dishes.... and the big feasts my family had with our relatives and friends.
Many Christians are celebrating Easter this weekend. Their meaning of Easter is Jesus' victory over death. The time when he overcame death and rose to live in heaven forever.
Whether you celebrate Easter or not, I would like to invite you to overcome somethings in your life and to a celebration of renewal and rebirth. What are the things you want to finally let go of? What things would you like to give birth to? Let's do some spring cleaning not only physically but emotionally, mentally and spiritually? Let's let go of things that do not serve us any longer like sadness, resentment, anger, disappointments, etc. And by letting go of these limited beliefs and limitations we can make room for things positive things like harmony. Let's allow our spirit to soar and live in peace, joy and serenity! It all begins with one step....:)
With peace and love

Meditation Tip
A tip is to meditate the first thing you do in the morning as you wake up. You are already in a relaxed state and so use that opportunity to set the tone of the day. Repeat wonderful, positive affirmations that are in present tense such as:
*I follow my heart and I know I am on the right pathway for me.
*My life continues to get easier all the time. Life is good!
*I am so grateful for the miracle called the body. It serves me well.
*I always have enough money. Every though I think is creating my future, so I choose to be well balanced financially.
*I follow my heart and I know I am on the right pathway for me.

Reiki, An Enlightened Experience...
"In every culture and in every medical tradition before ours, healing was accomplished by moving energy." Albert Szent-Gyorgyi, Nobel Laureate in Medicine
What is Reiki?
Reiki (pronounced ray key) is an energy healing technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing using our life force energy. Learning Reiki or receiving Reiki is a step toward being proactive (preventive) in your healing process. Reiki is also a complementary healing that can be used in conjunction with any healing technique, whether medical or alternative.
How is Reiki performed?
Reiki is administered by laying on hands (touch therapy), connecting with a person’s energy points or chakras. The act of laying hands on the human or animal body to comfort and relieve pain is as old as instinct. When experiencing pain, the first thing most people do is to put their hands on it. When a child falls and scrapes her knee, she wants her mother to touch it (or kiss it) and make it better. Human touch conveys healing.
What are the benefits of Reiki?
Reiki allows everyone to tap into an unlimited supply of life force energy to improve health and enhance the quality of life. If one’s life force energy is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. It’s a way to work with your Higher Power. It’s an enlightening teamwork experience. It will change your life!
Reiki 1/ Reiki 2 Certification
In Reiki 1 you receive an attunement from Reiki Master Tina G. Sacchi which brings you to the Reiki 1 level. Reiki 1 heals physical level diseases in the person who receives it. Reiki 1 healing sessions are primarily for self-healing. The Reiki 1 healer can also do healing for someone else who is physically present.
In Reiki 2, you receive an attunement from Reiki Master Tina G. Sacchi which brings you to the Reiki 2 level. Reiki 2 attunement increases the amount of healing energy. It adds considerable power to direct sessions. It also adds the methods and tools for doing healing with someone who is not physically present--distance healing.
Reiki 3 Certification
Reiki 3 is the Master/Teacher degree. A Master is simply a teacher, one who has mastered the discipline. No ego or ownership is involved in this term. The Reiki 3 practitioner experiences a further increase in the ability to channel healing energy. This energy is pure joy, oneness with all life, and connection with your God/Higher Power.
If you are interested in taking Reiki classes and certification to become a Reiki master, contact Tina through her website at www.tinasacchi.com.

What is Ear Coning or Ear Candling?
1. What is Ear Candling?
Ear Candling is a natural way to clean out accumulated wax and white, flaky fungus from the ears. The accumulations withdrawn from your ears may be many months or even years old. Ear Candles are custom designed from natural fibers and tapered to precise specifications. This technique dates back as far as the Egyptians when they used hollow reeds from swamps. It has been passed down by many generations by the Egyptians, Asians and Europeans.
YOU WANT A CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL TO DO THIS PROCEDURE!!!! Hot wax in the ear is not only painful, it's also difficult to extract.
Ear Coning can be beneficial for ear infections, ear aches, wax build up, tinnitus, hearing difficulties, etc. It also assists you in opening your body's spiritual centers, thus cleansing the spiritual body through the physical.
2. Does Ear Candling hurt?
Absolutely not! It is a painless, harmless and totally relaxing experience. If it weren't for the intermittent crackling and hissing sounds -- due to the burning of the wax and fungus being drawn up the chimney of the candle -- you would never know that anything was happening in your ear.
3. How long does an Ear Candling session last?
About forty-five (45) minutes per session, however, you should allow one (1) hour for your appointment.
4. How often should I have Ear Candling done?
Initially, most people need just 2 or 3 candling sessions to get their ears clean... However, some people, may need up to eight (8) sessions over a six month period. Once your ears are clean, personal preference should determine how often you have your ears candled. Every three to six months would be practical.
5. Who can benefit from Ear Candling?
Ear candling can benefit almost everyone, from infants to adults. Musicians can benefit - especially singers and horn blowers - who often have a lot more wax build up than other people. People who wear hearing aids can benefit. Also, those people who have had previous ear injuries, can benefit from ear candling as they tend to have a greater build up of wax and fungus.
6. Who should not have Ear Candling?
Ear Candling should not be done to people who have ear tubes, perforated ear drums, or artificial ear drums.
7. What are the ingredients?
The cones are made out of 100% unbleached cotton muslin and 100% beeswax. These are the blends you can choose from:
Black cohosh is an herb that is traditionally known as the woman's herb. It is also known to help the respiratory system.
Eucalyptus is an herb that helps to clear congestion and is found in many products such as Hall's mentholyptus lozenges. This variety is likely to be used by someone with upper respiratory or sinus complaints.
Osha Root is traditionally used for helping the lungs.
Releasing Blend It is a blend of essential oils that act as a catalyst for releasing whatever a person wants to let go of; whether it is physical, emotional, mental or spiritual releasing (or letting go of stress).
Respiratory Blend is a special combination of herbs that are known to be germ killers and is a good general purpose choice for ear coning.
Rose is known to encourage patience and love and is also antiseptic.
Soothing blend is a special combination of herbs that are known to be soothing to the ear canal.
Tea Tree is a known antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral.
Yerba Santa is traditionally used as a mild decongestant. Comparing eucalyptus with yerba santa; eucalyptus is strong, while yerba santa is milder.

Appreciate People Now
The greatest weakness of most humans is their hesitancy to tell others how much they love them while they’re still alive. O.A. Battista
In my practice, I meet and assist many people in their healings. One specific area that I want to share with you is appreciating people, whether they are your loved ones or someone you meet in passing. Appreciate them now. Even a simple word of thanks, a hug, or simply saying, "I love you," or "I appreciate you," creates a wonderful exchange of positive energy. Even if the recipient does not state it back, you have opened up a positive connection and the flow of kindness happens. A healing happens for them and for you! By spreading love and kindness, the soul basks in this energy and resolution happens. Just imagine taking one day out of your life to tell everyone you interact with that day how much you appreciate them, or to compliment them on something about them. Imagine how all the positive interactions can create wonderful things for you too! Your mind, body, spirit, and emotions gain from all this positive energy!
Lately, I've been administering Final Rites to people who are getting ready to cross over. This has brought tremendous gifts to me. Gifts of enlightenment, love, peace, and joy. Everytime I participate in this event, I get the message to appreciate my family, friends, and acquaintances with honor. Before my clients cross over, we have discussions about their lives and I always ask what they would like to finish before they leave. Almost always if not always, I get that they want to see or talk to specific individuals so that they can tell them words of appreciation. Their soul knows that this exchange creates the love, the reason why they came on earth. Our soul purpose is to love unconditionally, ourselves and others.
Yesterday outside a supermarket, there were two teenage individuals raising money for other teenagers that need drug rehab. My guides pulled me in their direction and so I donated money and started to talk with them. Both have been clean from crystal meth for several months. I looked with love in their eyes and they instinctively reached out for my hand. I told them both how proud I am that they have realized how precious they really are. I also told them that with everything in life, we must take it one day at a time. I saw tears in their eyes. Tears of appreciation, of being understood, of feeling worthy. I told them that I am rooting for them and they can call me if they need help. This simple gesture of appreciation created mileage of hope in their lives. I know I have inspired them to continue their sobriety at least one more day!
I hope you're out there appreciating people with me too. Thanks and I appreciate you!
Namaste,
Tina Sacchi
